April 8, 2013

Hello,

Well, this has been a
super good week for me. I don't know if I mentioned last week, but my
birthday last week marked that I have officially been out of the MTC longer
than I was in it! What a great birthday present!

Also, as a birthday
present to myself, I bought a pan for making palacsintas, which are basically
crepes, except they are Hungarian, so they're better.

On Wednesday, our one
investigator with a baptism date (whom I havent seen in over a month since my
last companion left) randomly showed up to our English Class! He has a big
beard now, and apparently has still been reading from the Book of Mormon every
day and still wants to be baptized, but has been extremely busy since he found
work (work is very hard to find here). So we are going to start meeting with
him again!

Thursday was Judd's
year mark as a missionary, so that night, we went on our balcony and
burned a shirt, haha.

On Friday, we went on
splits with the Zone leaders, so I had an Elder Kreiburg from Denmark come to
Érd, and I was the senior companion for the day! I had the phone, I lead all
the lessons, and I navigated all the transportation! All we did that day was
have district meeting, then 2 feeding programs, because all the transportation
took so long, but it was still awesome. And Elder Kreiburg was super fun to be
with for a day! Also, one of the members we met with also got me a cake, so...
it was fantastic, haha.

The other feeding
program we had was with the American family, and for the lesson, I had all the
kids act out parts from Lehi's dream! Haha.

General Conference was
a blast! I can't wait till the Liahona comes out so I can find out what
everyone said! I only got to hear one session in English, so that was
pretty hard. I did get like 2 pages of notes on one session in Hungarian
though! And that was a fun little shoutout to Hungary President Monson gave!
President Monson pronounced the name of the city Debrecen incorrectly, and so
it was funny for everyone there. It was good though.

Yup, that was all the
exciting news from my week! Let me know what's going on over there. I've been
hearing talk of mission calls for people. That's pretty cool.
